Description

In this engaging learning activity, students will embark on an adventure set in the year 1789, where they will work in teams to solve puzzles related to early American government concepts. The mission is to prove their knowledge and gather pieces of a final key to escape the classroom. The setup includes four distinct puzzle stations, each focusing on crucial themes: the Articles of Confederation, Constitutional Convention, key compromises, and the debates between Federalists and Anti-Federalists. As students complete each challenge, they will learn about the foundational elements of American governance while collaborating with their peers, enhancing both their understanding and teamwork skills.
